Before the Storm: How the Naval Postgraduate School Supports International Partners In Infrastructure, Energy, Cybersecurity

By Ms. Desiree Dellehay, Director of Communications,
NPS Foundation & Alumni Association

The Russian invasion of Ukraine rocked the critical infrastructure of Ukraine and has the potential to disrupt critical infrastructure globally. The impacts have disrupted daily life in Ukraine and financial markets globally. Political leaders, national security experts, and consumers everywhere are keeping a close eye on impacts to infrastructure, energy security and environmental security as Russia expands its aggression and threats to international security.     

Energy security is a critical enabler of military capability. The United States identified a national security interest in helping partners and allies to become more resilient in the face of hybrid threats and attacks on the systems that undergird basic living conditions such as heating in the winter and the transportation of goods and services. The focus of the Department of Defense has been helping allies and partners develop innovative solutions to the complex challenges they face.     

The Energy Academic Group at the Naval Postgraduate School plays an important role in enhancing global energy security by supporting security initiatives with NATO, partners and allies through education, research and outreach.     

“As the U.S. has an interest in the protection and resilience of global energy infrastructure and systems, it is fitting that DoD’s premiere Center of Excellence for energy security provides a focus on efforts to educate our forces, as well as our allies and partners, regarding the complexities of energy to include its challenges and opportunities,” said Dr. Daniel Nussbaum, Chair of the Energy Academic Group and an Operations Research professor at NPS.
